We have You Is Awesome to thank for introducing us to the gorgeous, gauzy tunes of Kenji Shinagawa (we’ve been digging through their archives like kids stealing into their big bro’s LP collection lately. Mint condition copy of Rio, anyone?). Shinagawa is a songwriter, as well as a guitar and loops man–one of those heavenly fellows with both a poetic soul and ticklish spirit. You’ll find his songs to be extremely evocative, yet distant and relaxing as a long afternoon on the sand.
